DownThemAll tips I have seen a few questions regarding queuing downloads in DownThemAll. Queuing in DownThemAll is easy. Get into its Preferences dialog, from the Tools menu of Firefox. 1. In its Preferences>Network tab, set the concurrent downloads to some sensible number. I use 2 since no site has ever objected to 2 concurrent downloads. 2. In Preferences>Advanced, I set max number of segments per download to 1(=disabled). Many sites do not like segmented downloads and neither do I. 3. When you add downloads from a site, you can do one of two things. a) Click Start. Download will then start immediately if not more than the concurrent number you set are already running. In that case, the download will queue and start as soon as it will not exceed the concurrent limit. OR b) Click "add paused". When all are added, select all downloads and click resume. It will run the number you chose as concurrent limit, queue the rest and start them in turn. I hope I have not duplicated something already posted. There are a few threads on download managers in general. It might be a good idea to have a separate thread for each download manager, so that people who like a particular one can ask questions or share tips about it easily. | |

When downloading multiple sites I set it to 1 per server but 5 concurrent. That way each server keeps an active connection and does not ask for a new login as might happen if it it several minutes before a download actually starts. | |
